"Dear Upstairs Neighbors" is a short animated film previewing at Sundance Film Festival.

It's a story about noisy neighbors that was crafted by our Google DeepMind team of Pixar alums, an Academy Award winner, researchers, engineers, and more.

In creating this film, our 45-person crew developed new Al capabilities specifically for filmmakers, and we look forward to releasing the film soon! Learn more at:

While I think that the animation process as we know it presently is at risk of disappearing, the behind the scenes short does highlight that there is still a lot of fundamental skill and vision required to execute a good film.

Who knows where human art skills will be in the future where we only retain the conceptual knowledge, but offload the physical act of creation to an algorithm.
